In order to restore the forks made from private repositories, you need written authorization from an administrator/owner of the upstream repository. If you have the login credentials of the owner's GitHub account, I would highly recommend against accessing it without their explicit consent. It's important to respect their privacy and ownership of their account. I suggest reaching out to the owner again and explaining the situation to them. If they are not responding, you can try contacting GitHub Support again and provide them with any additional information or context you have about the situation. They may be able to provide further guidance on how to proceed. I hope this helps. |

Question
Body
Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out to GitHub Support!
I believe that you are looking to restore private forks 2 private forks which were deleted 8 hours ago:
Jwjaa's deleted repositories
Deleted 8 hours ago - Jwjaa/myuuofficialbank – Repository ID:#613509556
Deleted 8 hours ago - Jwjaa/website – Repository ID:#610138522
These were originally forked from the private repositories of user Akshay-Dev-27.
Deleting an account will delete all its repositories, and deleting a private repository will delete all forks of the repository, this is what happened.
In the case of restoring or detaching forks made from private repositories, we need written authorization from an administrator/owner of the upstream repository too.
Even if they have deleted their account, they can authorize this by writing back to us from the email address that was associated with their GitHub account prior to deletion.
Please feel free to copy them in this thread, and once they write back to us from the email address associated with their relevant GitHub account, and they confirm that they agreeing to us to restore the private forks, we can go ahead and detach then restore the forks for you.
Alternatively, they can log a new ticket with us and reference this ticket (#32057889) and explain that they are writing in to authorize the restoration of the private forks mentioned above. We will action this as soon as we have their approval.
Thanks,
Adrienn
